Why is Hillary so popular?

Question

Why do so many people find Hillary Clinton so popular and worthy of being president?

Answer 1

she is a strong woman, besides she has 8 years of running the country behind her.

Answer 2

Gee man, not sure where you get your information but it appears to be completely backwards.

Presidential hopeful Hillary Clinton’s approval rating has plummeted, and a majority of Americans now have an unfavorable view of her, a new Gallup poll disclosed.

As recently as February, Clinton had a favorable rating of 58 percent. But in the new poll completed April 15, her favorable rating stood at just 45 percent, while 52 percent of respondents said they have an unfavorable view of Clinton.

"The recent decline in her image appears to be broad-based, as it is evident among most key subgroups,” Gallup noted.

Democratic rivals Barack Obama and John Edwards both had favorable ratings of 52 percent and unfavorable ratings of only 30 percent, according to the poll results reported in Editor & Publisher.

Hillary’s lead as the frontrunner for the nomination has also decreased, to just 31 percent to 26 percent over Obama. Edwards got 16 percent of the vote and Al Gore got 15 percent.

Pretty much looks like Hillary is tanking.

Answer 3

Hillary isn't so popular OR worthy of being president---just more publicized. The Liberal media love the Clinton's because scandals sell news. The American people should be smart enough to want better. Clinton's are more 'Soap Opera' characters than Presidential material.

Answer 4

Because she's a brilliant woman who is qualified to run this country and is more than capable of cleaning up Bush's mess in Iraq. If you really want to know about her, it's easy enough to read about her accomplishments, which are many, and her idea for this country, which are very good ones. As someone who is working on her campaign, I could give you the rundown but I don't think you really want to know.

The Hillary Hater's who swarm to questions like this will lead you to believe no one supports her, despite her steady polls numbers and the amazing amount of money she has raised for her campaign. Also, you can find the old unproven garbage like the Clinton Hit List and the really moldy Paul Harvey/Black Panthers story, both of which have been thoroughly debunked. The reason? They don't really have anything on her at all other than witch hunt crap the Republicans couldn't prove in over 8 years and after spending millions of dollars. You can keep believing anything they say about her, but if you really want to know the truth then check out her biography, or her stand on the issues, or her website where she lays out her plan for this country. She might just surprise you, if you'd be willing to listen.

EDIT: See what I mean about the Hillary Hater's flocking to these questions? And nothing to offer but bad rhetoric. Wildman is right about one thing. Moveon.org doesn't like her - she isn't liberal enough for them. That's one of the reasons I like her so much. Who ARE all these people giving her money and saying they'll vote for her? They are everywhere in this country. Polls can be bogus, but when they all come out the same it's time to start paying attention. It was the same in the mid-terms. Every poll said the Dems would take the House and Senate and every Republican said they were dreaming, that polls don't mean anything. Guess what? Wrong again.

Answer 5

Liberal media like CNN, CBS, MSNBC and such want her in office because she is so socialist leaning. Some (not all) women see her as a powerful woman taking on the men. They don't see the pitiful wife who has been publicly humiliated time after time for her entire marriage until she has no self respect. All for the chance to keep her power. I think she is a sad example of what a strong woman should be.

Answer 6

Who's Hillary?

Answer 7

They are either misguided, or ignorant. Most of those who support her look at her as a succesful woman. Most don't know the shady, and illegal deals she did. Anyone remember Whitewater, Tyson, Travelgate, Filegate, and the White House silverware?

Answer 8

IN REALITY SHE IS EXTREMELY UNPOPULAR. IN THE FAR LEFT MOVEON.ORG. WING OF THE DEMOCRATIC PARTY SHE RANKS THIRD AMONG THE CANDIDATES.
MANY LEFT WING BLOGGERS WANT HER TO APOLOGIZE FOR HER VOTE ON IRAQ. SHE WILL RALLY THE BASE OF THE REPUBLICAN PARTY TO VOTE AGAINST HER NO MATTER WHO THE CANDIDATE IS. SHE IS A VERY POLARIZING FIGURE.

Answer 9

Answer: Hillary and popular in the same sentence...
You must be looking for the gay bar where they tell knock knock jokes!
That's another category altogether.

Answer 10

Because she promises the masses things they don't have, like cheaper gas and free health care.

Of course, Hitler got elected the same way.
